Transmigrated into a slave? I raised a frontier war god while pioneering new lands.

During this period, the family was building a house, and with so many people talking, Xiao Hei was kept tied up to prevent any accidents.

Now that there's no one at home, Xu Qinghe wants to switch from raising animals in captivity to free-range raising them.

Of course, free-range is only allowed in our own yard; otherwise, with Xiao Hei's appearance, it would easily scare people.

Just when Xu Qinghe thought Xiao Hei would only run around in the yard, Xiao Hei turned around and ran towards the main room.

Xu Qinghe was nearly scared to death; her voice turned shrill, "Little Black!"

Her house was just built, and it's spotless everywhere.

Xiao Hei had been tied up in its kennel for so many days, without being bathed or dewormed, and its body was covered in filth. Yet it just rushed into the house like that.

Xu Qinghe's mind went blank for a moment, then he dropped his hoe and chased after them.

As soon as I entered, I saw Xiao Hei wagging its tail, its head down, sniffing around the house like a bomb-sniffing dog on TV.

If Xu Qinghe hadn't known there was nothing in her house, she would have suspected that someone had buried something in it.

But seeing its serious expression, Xu Qinghe's initial urge to kick it to death stopped.

Follow behind it, watching it sniff each scent until it has finished, then Little Black nimbly runs away.

Xu Qinghe had no choice but to follow, and when she went out, she found Xiao Hei sitting at the door of the main room waiting for her.

Xu Qinghe: "Is there anything?"

Xiao Hei stared at her with deep eyes, sticking out his tongue without saying a word.

Xu Qinghe immediately understood. "Alright, go play if you have nothing else to do! From now on, you're not allowed to come into the house unless you take a bath."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Hei immediately perked up and ran towards the chicken coop, where it peed right next to the roof.

Xu Qinghe...

"Shen Xiaohei, if you keep pooping and peeing everywhere, I'll stew you and drink the dog meat soup."

Before the house was built, Xiao Hei was well-trained. He would poop and pee in the vegetable garden, and he would even cover it up himself after he finished.

Who knew that as soon as the house was built, they forgot the old rules.

As soon as Xiao Hei saw Xu Qinghe get angry, it immediately became obedient, sticking out its tongue and looking at her pitifully.

Seeing this, Xu Qinghe softened and stopped paying attention to it. Only then did it become lively again, turning around and sneaking off into the chicken coop with a cheeky grin.

Xu Qinghe didn't know its purpose, and when it stopped making any noise, she ignored it.

He picked up a hoe and started digging a cellar.

Just as Xu Qinghe was digging away with great effort and was covered in sweat, a sudden commotion of chickens and dogs came from the yard.

Turning my head, I saw Xiao Hei fighting to the death with the pheasants in the chicken coop.

Little Black raised its head, staring at the pheasant with a fierce expression.

The pheasant stretched out its wings, glaring defiantly at Little Black.

The two little ones seemed to be at odds with each other.

Since Xu Qinghe brought this pheasant back last time, she couldn't bear to eat it because it was too thin, so she kept it as a pet.

As they kept raising it, the two children couldn't bear to eat it anymore and insisted on keeping it indefinitely. They even gave it a name: Xiao Cai (Little Rainbow).

Xiao Cai was also a lazy bum. Knowing that they couldn't bear to kill her, she just stayed in the chicken coop, eating and waiting to die.

Because it was a male and couldn't lay any eggs, Shen Zhi considered killing and eating it several times.

Shen Chengyue and Shen Chengchuan protected her, but Xiao Cai is shrewd. Seeing this, she became even more arrogant in their home.

Every day, it bullies this chicken or that goose, but luckily, Little Black isn't afraid of it.

They're also very provocative; the two of them are bound to fight if they get together.

Xu Qinghe got used to it, glanced back at the two of them, and then started busying herself.

The soil in their area isn't very good; in fact, it could be described as poor.

Because the soil here is very hard, it's not very suitable for growing grain, so there's no problem with digging a cellar with a roof.

Xu Qinghe first used a hoe to throw the soil down to loosen it, and then used a shovel to shovel it outwards.

They didn't dare to throw the excavated soil away carelessly; they put it all into a basket on their backs so that they could carry it out once they had accumulated enough.

In case someone comes and sees this pile of dirt, they might start digging into it and asking all sorts of questions.

While Xu Qinghe was busy and sweating profusely, Xiao Hei and Xiao Cai had not yet determined a winner.

Xu Qinghe was extremely annoyed by their incessant chirping.

She turned around, grabbed Xiao Hei, and threw it into the pit she had dug.

"You're bored, aren't you?"

"Full of energy, huh?"

"Come on, dig some dirt for me."

Little Black gave her a pitiful look, and seeing that she had no emotion in her eyes, it raised its two paws and pitifully started scratching.

Seeing that Xiao Hei had been punished, Xiao Cai immediately strutted arrogantly toward the chicken coop.

Xu Qinghe threatened him without any politeness: "If you bully this person or that person again, I'll kill you and make soup for you tomorrow."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Cai immediately cowered and obediently went back to the chicken coop to lie down.

It has to be said that these dog paws are quite powerful; when they dig seriously, they can be a great help.

Just as the person and the dog were busy having fun, there was a knock at the door. "Mom! Open the door, I'm back."

Xu Qinghe looked at the motionless Xiao Hei and walked towards the door.

Upon opening the door, one could see Shen Chengyue and Shen Chengchuan standing there like little kittens.

Xu Qinghe immediately looked disgusted and said, "What have you two been doing? It's so dirty!"

Shen Chengyue: "We're going to play war games."

"Mom, what are you doing at home?"

Seeing that there was no one behind them, Xu Qinghe didn't hide it from him and said, "Dig a cellar."

Upon hearing this, Shen Chengyue immediately became excited, "I want to dig a cellar too!"

He ran into the yard, asking as he ran, "Where?"

Xu Qinghe: "To the little black dog's kennel."

Upon hearing this, Shen Chengyue immediately ran over, and Shen Chengchuan, not to be outdone, followed closely behind.

As soon as the two of them arrived, they saw Xiao Hei digging a large pit with a resentful expression.

Shen Chengyue became even more excited upon seeing this. Without saying a word, he slid down from the side, shouting to Xu Qinghe as he slid down, "Mother, bring me the shovel."

Their family has those miniature shovels and hoes used for digging up medicinal herbs in the mountains.

It was perfect for the children, so Xu Qinghe didn't hesitate and handed it over to them.

As she handed the food to the two children, she asked, "What would you like to eat for lunch?"

Without hesitation, Shen Chengchuan replied, "Meat, eggs, and steamed buns."

Xu Qinghe immediately understood what he meant, bent down and pinched his chubby little face, and said disdainfully, "You're such a big eater." After saying that, she washed her hands and went into the house.

Because she's been busy lately and hasn't had time to make noodles, Xu Qinghe wanted to steam some buns for them now that she has some free time.

The dough was already prepared and proofed this morning, so it should be just right to cook it now.

Xu Qinghe first steamed the risen buns, and then cut the meat to make meat patties for them.
